What All Games?

I'm new to paintballing and was wondering what all games are played and a brief description of each game played.

Any info will be valuable.

There are two main types of paintball. They are Woodsball and Speedball. I will explain Speedball first.

Speedball:Speedball is a fast, adrenalin filled game. Nearly all tounaments are played in some form of speedball. There are 3 different types of
Speedball:Speedball, Hyperball, and Sup' Airball.

Speedball: Speedball is played with inflatable bunkers, there are two main way to get points, one is to eliminate players on the ohter team. The other is to capture the other teams flag. There is a flag at both ends of the field. The point is to get the other teams flag back to your side without getting hit. You also get points for eliminating the other team, but not as many.

Hyperball: Hyper ball is played using Industrial Tubes. These are tall and black, wiht ridges. Hyperball is played the same as speedball.

Sup' Airball: Sup' Airball uses inflatable bunkers like speedball, though they are slightly different. In sup' airball instead of having a flag at both ends there is one flag in the middle. The point of the game is to get the flag back to your side. You can also get points for eliminating the other team, though you get more for the flag capture.


Woodsball: There are two main types of woodsball: Woodsball, and scenario paintball.

Woodsball: This is probably the most commonly played paintball game. In the beginning this was the only type. Woodsball is played in the woods, and are usually not arganized fields, like most speedball is played on. Generally in woodsball the point is to simply eliminate the other team.

Scenario/Big game: This is nearly always played at an organized field, and, as it's name suggests, is generally a reinactment of a battle from WW2/Vietnam etc. There are usually over 100 people at these games. These games can include cities, forts, and can cover many acres of land. Scenario games can also be reinactments from movies etc. Big games sometimes are not really based on anything, though big games and scenarios are objective based.
